gollark: I made a thing to bulk-convert files to DFPWM and stick them on a tape, with metadata, so you can select tracks. The playback thing just randomly picks tracks, because UIs are hard.
gollark: Arbitrary DFPWM sound files that is - DFPWM is some weird codec used nowhere else - but it's cool still.
gollark: Because those can't play music?
gollark: The tape drives aren't obsoleted by it.
gollark: ... yes.
